Don’t get caught in an emergency towing situation. As reliable as modern cars are, they also suffer from modernization. Newer cars feature manifold parts that used to be direct tubing fastened with a clamp. But manufacturing with these newer design parts is much more efficient and cuts labor costs, so they are here to stay. The problem with these new parts is that they can leave you stranded in the middle of the road when they fail. So, no matter what make or model you drive, there is always the chance you need to have your vehicle towed.
Emergency Collision Towing
That is without considering being involved in a collision that might disable your car. But even having a flat tire on a busy roadway can place you in imminent danger. So, even though you have the skills, tools, and a spear, handling the task independently might not be a good idea.
Avoid the Emergency
One must be proactive in maintaining their vehicles. Never drive a car that you suspect might break down. If you hear or suspect your vehicle is malfunctioning, get off the road immediately.
Tiers are one of the most important safety aspects of driving. Always ensure you rotate and align them. A blowout at high speeds, especially if it is one of the front tires, can be devastating.
Safety During an Emergency
It is always a good idea to place reflectors or emergency light kits around your vehicle, especially if you cannot move entirely onto the shoulder or the road. Communicating to incoming traffic is essential for your safety. Letting other drivers know your position is vital and imperative at night.
If you think it might be unsafe to change that tire, don’t risk a much worse situation.
When you break down, don’t be stranded. Always have the phone of a reliable towing service. You might not even need a tow, but your safety should always come first. If you have any questions, contact us at any time.
